The real king of the beasts is the elephant, who fears nothing. Elephants are strict vegetarians and live in female-dominated family herds. They are very intelligent and peaceful unless provoked. Unlike other animals, elephants will take care of a sick or wounded family member. Elephants communicate over long distances using low-frequency sound.

Mature male elephants often wander alone or with a companion (askari meaning foot-soldier in Swahili).
